Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Beneteau Antares 10.80 2008 vs Beneteau Antares 13.80 2008 — Which Modified Vee Fits Your Needs?
When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Beneteau Antares 10.80 2008 and the Beneteau Antares 13.80 2008 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Beneteau Antares 13.80 2008 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Beneteau Antares 10.80 2008 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Beneteau Antares 13.80 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Beneteau Antares 13.80 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 45,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Beneteau Antares 10.80 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
